Townie family generation, curious

Salim Benali has been starting to get a little friendlier with his good friend Tanvi Savalani, who I think is a randomly generated townie. He knew she was a stay-at-home mom. I moved Tanvi and her child Sai into an apartment so that Salim could go visit them. In the process, I noticed another Savalani household with a dad and a child.

I didn't want to peek at Tanvi and Sai's relationships and family tree, because I don't want to know anything Salim doesn't know about them just yet, but I wonder if they are related-- perhaps divorced-- as the children do look like a mix of both parents?

Then I got curious and looked through the other households. I found some Gotos who don't look like each other at all

some Mahajans who look like sisters (one of these is Salim's neighbor)

and some Acharyas and Hashimotos who are like the Savalanis, separate households but the kids look like a mix of the adults.
(Or well, on second thought, maybe the Acharya kids don't resemble the adults from both households as much as the Hashimotos and Savalanis do.)

And then I noticed something odd. No townie families with kids have 2 parents in the home, except for the premades. It's all single parents.

Can anyone shed any light on this?
